Fuel Pump Issue

Hey gents quick question for you guys. I believe I have an issue with my fuel pump so I called the dealer. My car has over 50k miles so its past the factory warranty but the service rep said that the HPFP is under warranty for 10ys/100k miles. My only question is that since i have mods will they still honor it? The service rep said it depends on the mods and if they arent a direct reason for the failure, current performance mods are:
-JB4
-intake
- charge pipe
-BOV
-catback exhaust

I do recall reading a post on here that said no matter what mods the dealer say honor the warranty is this true... i would love as much insight as you guys can provide before I go to the dealer

also anyone have any idea how much this is cost if done by an indy shop?
-thank you

well.. i guess you have paid them to have them installed. If that's the case, the cost of unistalling and reinstalling will cost more than the hpfp repair. Since your car is out of warranty anyway.. i would at least try one or two places/..

Better safe than sorry. Exhaust is probably okay.
